Me and my partner Shawn are super stoked to have finally launched QuoteRobot.com after months of hard work and dedication. Quote robot is a an easy-to-use quote generation tool, which learns from your past quotes and helps you create new quotes by suggesting hours and line items. Not only does it make it possible to rapidly generate quotes, but also outputs very clean looking PDF files which can be instantly emailed to clients. Once a client reviews a quote, they can choose to comment, accept, or decline your quote – all tracked online. We are still in a testing phase, and are currently offering free 30 day trials to anyone who signs up now! Check it out >

This has been anoying me for months (maybe years). You are developing and tab back to phpMyAdmin, only to be logged out with a session timeout error, of 1440 seconds.

With the new year here, I’ve decided to start releasing some scripts I use frequently for myself and clients. This is definitely not the first jQuery Banners script out there, but it is certainly one of the most light weight, and easy to use. The script supports the following features:

• Horizontal & Vertical banner image rotating
• Banner rotations triggered by an object, or jQuery Timer
• Linkable banner images
• Easing & Speed control on banner transitions

I’m going to write a tutorial for the horizontal scroller used on this website. You can scour the web, and I pretty much gaurantee you will not find this anywhere (yet). I spent hours digging around, because people have done similar things like the apple store product slider, but this type of jQuery slider is quite a bit different than that. Stay tuned for an upcoming freebie!

Started a new recipes site, where users can rate recipes, submit them, comment. The domain sucks, and the recipes site will be based around foods with garlic. It’s garlicfoods.info so I’m looking to buy something with a dot com instead. What’s import is that the structure of the site gets nailed down so I can reuse the code for other recipe sites. On the homepage a featured recipe box with large images that cycle. I used an open source jQuery script called the ‘coda slider’. However, after all the hard of getting it to work properly. I think I found something even better: Better Coda Slider. If you ever need to cycle content (featured content, news flashes, etc) this is great script to do it.
